Our group of 8 friends (in our 40s and 50s) decided to take a weekend getaway to celebrate our October birthdays since so many typical activities are unavailable due to Covid and this rental was the perfect place. We were there for about 48 hours and except for a brief foray to see if anything was going on at Seven Springs, we spent the entire time in the condo. The night we arrived we used the nice gas grill (could use a big metal spatula) to make our dinner and sat on the deck around the fireplace for about 7 straight hours enjoying drinks and music and the beautiful fall weather. Saturday we walked a little and then stayed in and played games and relaxed. A perfect break from the quarantine blues :)
The home is clean, comfortable and very well appointed. Plenty of hand soap, towels, blankets, utensils, firewood and other amenities available to make our stay comfortable (bring your own soap for the shower). Each bedroom was comfortable and private with TVs and plenty of bathroom space. Individual thermostats for each room was a really nice touch since agreeing on the perfect temp for 8 people can be challenging.
My rental experiences have often felt like the beds and mattresses were the owner's castoffs and several trips have suffered because of an uncomfortable sleeping experience. This was not the case here. All the beds here were comfortable with the only struggle being most of us have king beds at home now and these were all queens (except for the bunk bed room).
Ron was easy to work with; the entire transaction was handled in two or three emails. The lockbox was easy to use and the rules of the house were easy to follow and reasonable.
The development has nice amenities as well like the pool, bocce court and little lakes scattered throughout but we didn't really take advantage of anything on this trip. The fall colors were beautiful; we are not skiers so October was a great month to visit the area.
Thanks for a great trip!
